Soul Wilderness Retreat

Does your soul CRAVE wildness?

Re-discover your wild self in the heart of The Blue Ridge Mountains.

With the forest as our witness and ritual as our guide, we will enter into a space of deep magic to re-member our true natures. On this retreat, you’ll have the space to leave behind the patterns and distractions of daily life.

Who are you when you’re un-interrupted?

On this retreat, you’ll participate in powerful ceremonies, receive energy healing, and practice hearing (and listening to) your intuition – all designed to restore your sense of purpose and belonging.

“To be with Lola and Tigre is an invitation to becoming a more compassionate, true, courageous and centered version of yourself.” —Courtney B.

YOU matter.

Along the way, you’ll be lavished with nourishing food, restored and replenished by meditative nature walks, and infused with the kind of hope and love that’s only available when you’re with soul family.

What’s Included:

Ceremonies + Practical Magic

When you participate in ritual, studies have shown that your brain becomes more receptive to healing; making pattern-changes and long-term “software” updates not only more possible, but the effects more sustainable. We’re incorporating powerful rituals throughout this retreat to help you simplify your life, identify what truly matters to you, and return to a more aligned way of being, including a nighttime Seiðr (pronounced “say-thur”) circle with mind-expanding (and heart-opening) medicines, energy healing, soul transmissions, and healing songs from our Indigenous European ancestry. You’ll also get hands-on practice and training to amplify your intuition, including working with herbal medicine, divination tools, discovering animal guides (and interpreting their messages), and visionary meditation practices – all of which will support your return home to everyday life.

My retreat with Lola and Tigre was one of the most incredible and life changing experiences I’ve ever had… They were the most phenomenal guides. You could truly feel how devoted they are to their work and the passions they have to make this world a better place. They are living examples of truth, love, strength and harmony. I am SO deeply grateful to have been gifted the opportunity to adventure with them as my leaders. I urge anyone who is on the fence about journeying deeper with them to take the plunge! It’s absolutely worth it!! You’ll be SO glad you did!! —A.R.D. Guest at our 2017 Peru Retreat
